Oral health may be particularly important if you have artificial heart valves.Tooth loss patterns are connected to coronary artery disease.There is a connection between diabetes and cardiovascular disease and evidence that people with diabetes benefit from periodontal treatment.

A heads up on changes at the checkout

Fiona from Henderson

I just received this from Countdown:

I just received this from Countdown:
"We’re writing with good news. From 1 July, the government’s changes to single-use plastic carrier bags come into effect, which we think is great!

We (and the environment!) love when you bring your reusable bags when you shop with us, but know that sometimes you’ll forget or get caught short.

That’s why at checkouts we’re replacing our Use Me Again bags with paper bags in-store from 1 July. Our 20c paper bags are made with sustainably sourced paper from Forest Stewardship Council certified forests, and are 100% recyclable. Or choose our $1 Bag for Good. Wear it out, bring it back and we’ll replace it for FREE!

You’ve already shown how committed you are to helping protect the environment. Thanks for your support as we make even more changes for the better.

Regards,
The team at Countdown"

Just an observation, the Warehouse use fully compostable bags and they cost 15 cents - it used to be 10 cents for plastic ones. The compostable bags can be used for a lot longer than the paper bags (which rip so easily).
So why would Countdown charge 20 cents for a paper bag?
I love paper bags but to charge 20 cents for them, when previously when we were all using plastic bags with our groceries, they didn't charge us at all - well not until it became a serious Eco issue, then they charged us.

Potato fritters & chips from THE TASTE OF ORIENT Lincoln Road Henderson. Who knows when they last changed their oil. The food was disgusting we could not eat it & after a few bites we have a fowl oil taste left in our mouths. The food looked dark. The fish inside was even dark. I phone them & she said I just cook it when you come in it not over cook. No one ever complained. She could not understand I was COMPLAINING I ended up hanging up on her she couldn’t have given a dam. Will never go anywhere near there again.

What do you think, is this fair? Will you still use Uber Eats when the surcharge applies?
